This node creates a new poly object for each shell in the inputPoly. (A shell is a section of the mesh that is not edge-connected to the rest of the mesh.)

endFace, icount, inPlace, inputPoly, output, remShells, startFace, useOldPolyArchitecture, userSpecifiedShells

Long name (short name)TypeDefaultFlags
endFace (ef) integer0outputinputconnectablestorable
The shells are formed up to this specified face id
icount (ic) integer-1outputinputconnectablestorablehidden
Shell count : the number of shells in the input polygon at the first computation of the node.
inPlace (inp) boolfalseoutputinputconnectablestorable
The operation should happen in place so one of the results is the original object and the detached shell forms a new mesh
inputPoly (ip) meshNULLoutputinputconnectable
The input polygon.
output (out) meshNULLarrayoutputconnectable
Output objects.
remShells (rs) intArrayemptyoutputinputconnectablestorable
Specific shells to do the operation on. Test attribute
startFace (sf) integer0outputinputconnectablestorable
The shells are formed from this specified face id
useOldPolyArchitecture (uopa) boolfalseoutputinputstorablehidden
Attribute to specify if the old poly architecture needs to be used for the evaluation of this node. SHOULD NOT BE SET OR MODIFIED BY THE USER!!
userSpecifiedShells (uss) boolfalseoutputinputconnectablestorable
The shells are formed from the selected and unselected faces.
